Is Walter Jones hinting that he’s done?

All-Pro left tackle Walter Jones isn’t currently with the Seattle Seahawks as he’s home in Florida rehabilitating his injured left knee, but the veteran sent a couple interesting messages on his Twitter account Friday.

Take it with a raised eyebrow, since the Seahawks department of communications says it hadn’t talked to Jones as of 4 p.m. Friday afternoon, but the big man either is messing with people or he’s about had it with his rehab.

Jones’ initial post at 5 a.m. Seattle time said in part: “I think some time you came push your body to the point of no return and you have to face reality”

At noon he then posted: “think I have had a great run at this thing the NFL and seahawks and the fans hve been great to me.”

Followed immediately by: “There is no easy way to give something that you have been doing for s long time.”

There is no time pressure on Jones to make any sort of decision at this point, so it would be surprising if he has chosen to step down. And the Seahawks apparently have no inkling that is taking place.

But Jones is facing a difficult return from two knee surgeries in the past year. And this is a new era with athletes communicating their thoughts directly to the public via Twitter. So all we can do is read and wonder until Jones or the Seahawks provide any sort of clarification.
